Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of adjusting a pointing position during click operation and a three-dimensional (3D) input device using the same, and more particularly, to a method of adjusting a pointing position of a pointer on a display when click operation is performed in a 3D space, and a 3D input device using the same.
- the click signal can be generated at a position slightly deviated from a desired point due to movement of a hand accompanied by movement of a finger during click operation.
- the 3D input device comprises a gyroscope and an accelerometer for detecting movement of a hand and fingers.
- the accelerometer is usually mounted on a user's finger to detect an up/down movement of the finger and output a finger movement signal indicating whether a click signal is generated.
- the gyroscope is usually mounted on the back of the hand to detect movement of the hand and output a hand movement signal.
- the present invention provides a method of precisely adjusting a pointing position by disregarding hand movement signals generated before click operation when a user puts on a 3D input device and stops moving her/his hand for the purpose of click operation in a space.
- a method of adjusting a pointing position on a display during click operation is performed by using a 3D input device comprising a first unit for detecting movement of a hand and a second unit for detecting movement of a finger.
- the method includes detecting and outputting a hand movement signal by using the first unit, and locating the pointing position on the display based on the hand movement signal; waiting for a click signal generated from the second unit during a second time period if the hand movement signal is not detected during a first time period; and outputting the click signal and preventing the hand movement signal generated from the first unit during the second time period from being output if the click signal is generated during the second time period.
- a 3D input device comprising an angular velocity sensor which is put on a part of a hand to detect movement of the hand; accelerometer sensors which are put on a part of fingers to detect movement of the fingers; and a transmitting unit that outputs output signals of the accelerometer sensors and does not output an output signal of the angular velocity sensor during a first time period if an amplitude of the output signal of the angular velocity sensor is smaller than or equal to a first threshold during a second time period, and if the amplitudes of the output signals of the accelerometer sensor are larger than or equal to a second threshold during the first time period.
- FIG. 1 illustrates an appearance of a 3D input device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 2 shows output signals of an accelerometer and a gyroscope during a click operation
- FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing a method of determining user's intention for click operation according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 4 is a flow chart showing a method of adjusting a pointing position according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 5 illustrates output signals of the accelerometer and the gyroscope transmitted from the transmitting unit when a click operation is generated
- FIG. 6 illustrates frequencies of the number of success over a probability of success of click operation according to a conventional art and an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 1 illustrates an appearance of a 3D input device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
- the 3D input device is put on to a user's hand in the form of a SCURRY mouse like a glove.
- the reference number 10 refers to accelerometers which are put on fingers.
- the reference number 11 refers to an angular velocity sensor, namely, a gyroscope which is put on the back of the hand.
- the reference number 12 refers to a transmitting unit which transmits movement of the fingers or the hand detected by the accelerometers 10 or the gyroscope 11 to an exterior device such as a computer (not shown).
- the transmitting unit 12 may comprise a signal converting unit (not shown) for converting signals output from the accelerometers 10 (A 1 , A 2 , A 3 ) or the gyroscope 11 to be suitable for wireless communication and a control unit (not shown) for performing adjusting a pointing position during click operations in a space according to the present invention.
- the transmitting unit 12 may transmit all signals output from the accelerometer 10 or the gyroscope 11 to a receiver unit (not shown).
- a control unit (not shown) installed in a receiver unit may perform adjusting a pointing position during click operations in a space by using the received signals.
- the accelerometer 10 detects up/down movement of the finger for click operation or typing.
- the gyroscope 11 detects movement of the hand in a right/left direction (X-axis) or an up/down direction (Y-axis) with respect to the wrist.
- the receiver unit establishes a pointing position of the pointer on a display based on a hand movement signal output from the gyroscope 11 .
- FIG. 2 shows output signals of the accelerometer 10 and the gyroscope 11 during the click operation.
- the reference number 20 refers to an output signal of the accelerometer 10 .
- the reference number 21 refers to an output signal of the X-axis gyroscope 11 which detects movement in an X-axis direction.
- the reference number 22 refers to an output signal of the Y-axis gyroscope 11 which detects movement in a Y-axis direction.
- the reference number 23 refers to a threshold value for determining whether a click signal is generated.
- the reference number 24 refers to a point where an output value of the accelerometer 10 exceeds the threshold value. At this point, it is regarded that the click operation happens.
- a dx and A dy are drift ranges generated from each of gyroscopes 11 when the X-axis and Y-axis gyroscopes 11 do not move.
- a DX and A DY are output ranges of the X-axis and Y-axis gyroscopes 11 , respectively, which detect movement of the hand before the click operation is detected.
- T 1 is a time period in which a user temporarily stops movement for click operation.
- T 12 is a time period before the outputs of the X-axis and Y-axis gyroscopes 11 exceed A dx and A dy after T 1 , respectively.
- T 12 corresponds to a time margin before the click operation happens after T 1 .
- the value of T 12 may be set to a value not less than 0 as occasion demands.
- TD is a time period after T 12 and before the click operation happens.
- T 2 is a time period after detecting the click operation in which detection of movement of the hand is disabled. During the time period T 2 , the pointer is prevented from moving due to movement of the hand at the moment that the click operation is completed.
- the X-axis and Y-axis gyroscope 11 detects movement of the hand before a click signal detection point 24 . That is, if the hand starts to move for the click operation, the back of the hand on which the gyroscope 11 is put also moves together so that the pointer moves to a position deviated from a desired point on a display.
- a click operation is defined to be intentional, if the click operation is generated after a pointer is positioned in a desired point on a display by movement of the hand and then the hand movement stops for a predetermined time period, namely, T 1 .
- Click operations except for the above case are regarded as not being intentional. More specifically, when a user stops moving her/his hand, the control unit determines if the user stops to click or stops temporarily during moving the pointer. If it is determined the user stops to click, a hand movement signal generated during a time margin is not allowed to be output so that the movement of the hand is not detected.
- the time margin refers to a time period that the user is supposed to perform a click operation. If it is determined the user just stops temporarily, click signals generated during a predetermined time period after that are neglected.
- FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing a method for adjusting a pointing position according to the present invention.
- Whether there is movement is determined by measuring an amplitude of an angle velocity.
- the amplitude of the angle velocity (A) is obtained by summing the square of an amplitude of the angle velocity in an X-axis angular velocity (A x ) and the square of an amplitude of a Y-axis angular velocity (A y ).
- a stop counter T c is incremented by one sample period (operation 33 ). If the stop counter T c is larger than the time period T 1 (operation 34 ), it is determined that the user stops to click or intends to precisely adjust the pointer (a case X, operation 35 ). In operation 34 , if the stop counter T c is smaller than or equal to the time period T 1 , the process returns to operation 31 .
- FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing a method of adjusting a pointing position according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
- the method of adjusting a pointing position shown in FIG. 4 is performed after the time period T 1 shown in FIG. 3 .
- a stand-by counter T w is reset to 0 (operation 41 ), and it is detected whether there is any movement (operation 42 ). If the stand-by counter T w is smaller than the time period T 12 (operation 43 ), the stand-by counter T w is incremented by one sample period (operation 44 ), and it is detected again whether there is any movement (operation 42 ). In this case, the time period T 12 is used as a time margin reserved for the time period T 1 , and thus can be set to 0 if necessary. If the stand-by counter T w is larger than or equal to the time period T 12 , then it is determined whether a user's intention corresponds to the case X in operation 35 shown in FIG. 3 (operation 45 ).
- operation 45 If it is determined that the user intends to click or precisely adjust the pointer (operation 45 ) and the stand-by counter T w is smaller than the time period (T 12 +T D ) (operation 46 ), then operation 48 of waiting for the generation of a click operation is performed. If a click operation is generated, then a click signal is transmitted (operation 49 ). If a click operation is not generated, then the process returns to operation 42 .
- the hand movement signal is not transmitted in order to prevent movement of the pointer based on the movement of the hand (operation 51 ).
- the stand-by counter T w is then incremented by one sample period (operation 52 ) and the process returns to operation 50 .
- the hand movement signal is not transmitted while the stand-by counter T w is smaller than the time period (T 12 +T D +T 2 ).
- FIG. 5 illustrates output signals of the accelerometer and the gyroscope when a click operation is generated.
- the following table shows the number of successful clicks when each of five persons (i.e., A, B, C, D and E) clicks 20 times for 4 rounds according to a conventional art.
- the following table shows the number of success when each of five persons (i.e., A, B, C, D and E) clicks 20 times for 4 rounds according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 6 is a graph showing frequencies of the number of success with respect to a probability of success based on the results shown in the above [Table 1] and [Table 2]. This also shows that the present invention results in an improved performance.
- the present invention it is determined if a user stops to click or temporarily stops moving a pointer when a user puts on a 3D input device and stops moving her/his hand. Then, hand movement signals generated before and after the click operation from when a user stops movement are neglected. Therefore, it is possible to more precisely locate a pointing position, and thus improve a probability of click success at a desired point on a display.
